Dayan, Sinking in quicksand and can't get out

[~Adam~]

Yeah, I'm pretty sure I'm faster on my weilong than my zhanchi. Although, I think my zhanchi (the one I used at worlds) is dying, so I'd probably be about the same speed on a good zhanchi. My weilong isn't particularly good, at least compared to Mats'.

Also almost nobody here cares what CBC thinks about cubes.

I thought you were going to show me a video of a dayan literally sinking in quicksand.... I can't explain how disappointed I am right now...

Guhong is still best cube.

Exactly but in my opinion, the PanShi was buisness suicide. They knew that the psychological advantage to the cube was that it would be able to cut 45 degrees but the PanShi failed to do that, I'm not saying that anyone needs that cutting but you have to agree that it is an advantage. The ZhanChi came out in 2011, and the PanShi came out in 2013, that gave them a 2 year span as #1 but they dug their own grave with the realisation of their new cube not surpassing its previous design. 2 year is a long time to "perfect or at the very least improve. You also have to see the laughable irony in the cube, "PanShi" refers to solid as a rock and yet my corner stalk broke off in less than a week. I'm not saying that Dayan is bad and should be erased from the market, I'm saying that if they don't keep up, they're gonna be kept in the dust.

Lol. Me too.

oh my goodness, what a knee slapper :0

u do realise they have come out with a 4x4 that has currently just beaten shengshou by a landslide @KongShou

DaShing Bao (is that how you spell it?) the designer of the zhanchi and guhong has said he thought the zhanchi was as as good as any cube he could design basically in short he was happy to leave it at the zhanchi but people forced him into doing it. He didn't want to make the panshi. He just caved in the the pressure people gave him.

Personally I don't think Dayan will "sink", for one reason. They do other puzzles then just speedcubes.

 

[Michael Womack]

I Don't see Dayan becoming a forgotten Speedcube company anytime soon. The Dayan 2x2 and Dayan Megaminx are still one of the best Speedcubes out there.

you missed out all the other cubes they made that are also the best in the market

who knows if dayan is dying. they havent made a good 3x3 in a long time, but that doesnt mean that they cant do better than the zhanchi. look how good it was and still is, they can also learn from the new cubes that came out. not knocking off of course.

Their mega and 2x2 and Guhong are all still amazing cubes. Dayan is treading water (or quicksand) very well.

Don't forget the zhanchi..
Srsly tho
Dayan isn't sinking. So new stuff comes out, Dayan is amazing regardless.

Oh, and the mini zhanchis.

The megaminx isn't a speedcube. But other than that yes I don't think Dayan is near quicksand.

And that 4x4 that has "beaten ShengShou" doesn't even have a review yet afaik. Don't spout BS unless it's backable BS.
